Delhi Violence: Sonia Asks Shah to Resign; 'Laughable,' Says BJP

“There is a conspiracy behind the violence, country also saw this during Delhi elections,” Sonia Said.

Congress interim President Sonia Gandhi on Wednesday, 26 February demanded the resignation of Home Minister Amit Shah for ‘failing to maintan law and order’ in Delhi and held the central government responsible for the violent unrest in the national capital over the Citienship Amendment Act (CAA).

“There is a conspiracy behind the violence, country also saw this during Delhi elections. Many BJP leaders made inciting comments creating an atmosphere of fear and hatred,” she said while addressing the media.

"After reviewing the situation, the CWC is of the firm opinion that what has happened in Delhi is a colossal failure of duty for which the entire responsibility must be borne by the Central Government and particularly the Home Minister and calls upon the Home Minister to tender his resignation immediately."
